  2. Carbonated water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonated_water

    Modern carbonated water is made by injecting pressurized carbon dioxide into water. [36] The pressure increases the solubility and allows more carbon dioxide to dissolve than would be possible under standard atmospheric pressure. When the bottle is opened, the pressure is released, allowing gas to exit the solution, forming the characteristic ...

  3. Vacuum distillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_distillation

    Vacuum distillation is often used in large industrial plants as an efficient way to remove salt from ocean water, in order to produce fresh water. This is known as desalination. The ocean water is placed under a vacuum to lower its boiling point and has a heat source applied, allowing the fresh water to boil off and be condensed.

    Mariotte's bottle is a device that delivers a constant rate of flow from closed bottles or tanks. It is named after French physicist Edme Mariotte (1620-1684). A picture of a bottle with a gas inlet is shown in the works of Mariotte, [ 1 ] but this construction was made to show the effect of outside pressure on mercury level inside the bottle.

  6. Soda geyser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soda_geyser

    A soda geyser is a physical reaction between a carbonated beverage, usually Diet Coke, and Mentos mints that causes the beverage to be expelled from its container. The candies catalyze the release of gas from the beverage, which creates an eruption that pushes most of the liquid up and out of the bottle.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcoholic_beverage

    Fermented water is an ethanol-based water solution with approximately 15-17% ABV without sweet reserve. Fermented water is exclusively fermented with white sugar, yeast, and water. Fermented water is clarified after the fermentation to produce a colorless or off-white liquid with no discernible taste other than that of ethanol.

    A bottle of red can last between three to five days when stored in a cool, dry place with proper re-corking or using a bottle stopper. Lighter red wines that have fewer tannins won't last quite as ...

  9. Squeeze bottle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeeze_bottle

    A squeeze bottle is a type of container such as a plastic bottle for dispensing a fluid, that is powered by squeezing the container by exerting pressure with the user's hand. Its fundamental characteristic is that manual pressure applied to a resilient hollow body is harnessed to compress fluid within it and thereby expel the fluid through some ...
